The amino acid Proline. In the Codon Dictionary, Proline is the best example of a "wobble base". Each codon that begins with CC- [CCU, CCC, CCA, & CCG] codes for Proline.

Can an amino acid be specified by more than one codon?

Yes, each amino acid has several codons that correspond to it. Please see the related link for a chart which shows this. For example, UUU and UUC both code for Phenylalanine. However, if you are asking if a codon can code for more than one amino acid, the answer is no (but there are exceptions). This means that UUU codes for Phenylalanine - not for any other amino acids. Codons are made in sets of three bases to match the anticodons in corresponding sets of three bases.

Roentgenium is named after the German physicist, Röntgen (English: Roentgen). This name was proposed by the GSI Team. Before this, it was know by it's IUPAC systemic nameholder: Unununium (Uuu)


How soluble is glycerol in water?

It is so soluble in water that it can form hydrogen bonds with water, leading to the formation of glywaterol. Chemical structure of glycerol is ether, after formation it will become carboxylic acid Properties of glycerol - It is alkaline Properties of water- It is neutral. Product formed properties(Glywaterol)-It is radiactive, the second most radioactive compared to uuu. School -School of biochemistry in Nus :)

What are the best nucleotide triplets that best represent a codon?

The best nucleotide triplets that represent a codon are Adenosine, Cytosine, Guanine, and Uracil (A, C, G, and U). These nucleotides form RNA molecules, which are used during protein synthesis to encode the sequence of amino acids in a protein. Each triplet of nucleotides, or codon, corresponds to a specific amino acid or a signal to start or stop protein synthesis.

UUU and it encodes phenylalanine


What is the maximum number of amino acids that could be coded for by a sextion of mrna with the sequence guucagaacugu?

A codon is three bases long - so this section of mRNA would have 4 codons; UGA-UUC-AGU-AAC.Each codon relates to a specific amino acid (but several codons can code for the same amino acid, for example both UUU and UUC code for the amino acid Phenylalanine).Normally if you have four codons, such as this section of mRNA, the maximum number of amino acids you could have would be four. However, the first codon in this section, UGA, is actually a STOP codon. This means that when the ribosome reaches this codon, no further amino acids will be joined.This means that no amino acids could be coded for with this section of mRNA. (If the order of the codons was reversed, making the STOP codon last, then the answer would be three).


If the sequence of bases in mRNA is UUU UUA AUU GUC CCA the sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide will be?

The sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide will be Phenylalanine-Leucine-Isoleucine-Valine-Proline. This is because each group of three mRNA bases (codon) corresponds to a specific amino acid, as determined by the genetic code.
